Lindsay Emerick, MD, joined the PeaceHealth Medical Group Bellingham OB-GYN team in September 2018. Dr. Emerick was born and raised in Bellingham before moving away for training at Creighton University and the University of Arizona. She always knew she would want to make this area home again and she believes it is an honor to be able to serve the community she grew up in. Her philosophy for patient care is grounded in a collaborative approach between patient and physician in which shared decision-making and trust are key. As a twin herself who then had twins, she has an interest in multiple gestation pregnancies and other high risk pregnancies. Dr. Emerick also has a special interest in minimally-invasive surgery including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomies, tubal sterilization, oophorectomies, and many other gynecologic surgeries. Outside of work, Dr. Emerick enjoys spending her time with her husband and their three girls exploring the beautiful world around them through hiking, biking, camping, and visiting local parks.
